[QUOTE="pinevalley, post: 520129, member: 3710"] I was hoping that difficult child would hit his rock bottom when he was sent to jail, but he still doesn't get it. I received several text messages last night from a friend of difficult child, who has known him for a long time. This girl is not one of his druggie friends, and she was upset about something that difficult child has written to her from jail. She texted me that difficult child is still saying that he wants to use weed when his is out of jail,and he insists that he can use just weed and nothing else. He doesn't see any problem with smoking weed because it is "all natural". This is the exact same thing that he did when he was discharged from rehab several months ago. He promised us that he would never use spice again, because it really scared him. difficult child kept his word and did not use spice, but within just a few days he was using weed and pills and it went downhill from there. I suggested to his friend that she should write back to difficult child, and tell him that she does not want to have anything to do with him when he is out of jail if he is going to continue to use weed. This will upset difficult child, because he really does not want to lose this friendship. Our son has been saying all the right things to h and I when we talk to him from jail. He promises that he will never use drugs again, and he wants to turn his life around. If he is able to get on probation and get out of jail, he will be drug tested all the time. I can already see that he will fail a drug test and violate the terms of his probation and then he will be sent to prison. difficult child is supposed to be getting drug counseling every day in jail, but I think that he is still in denial about his problem. I have no idea what it will take for difficult child to understand that he can NEVER use any drugs again. I wish that I could talk to one of the drug counselors, but since difficult child is in jail it is not possible for us to have any contact with the counselors, and we have no part of his treatment. It seems like he just wants to have everything his way, he wants to get our of jail and he also wants to continue to use weed. This makes absolutely no sense to me. [/QUOTE]
